zombie, msycamore, thanks so much for the info re: the shot of the fleet.  Anyone know a reason why this was done, and when the FX shot was created?  Was it a shot they simply forgot to put in, or one they felt they needed for some reason after the movie was released?

I seem to remember reading/hearing in some Lucas or Kershner interview, about a shot at the end of ESB that apparently came out crappy, I believe of the fleet, and I think Kersh said, "one bad shot can ruin the whole movie" or something like that, so they decided to redo it.  I wonder if this is related to the missing/added FX shot?
